Polycarbonate is a tough, transparent thermo-plastic material that is characterized by high impact strength. Since it's inception it has been used where safety concerns are at the forefront . . . space shuttle windows, astronaut visors and industrial eye protection. Today, polycarbonate has found a large audience as an architectural sheet product, replacing traditional glazing in skylights, sidelites, greenhouses, transportation shelters, walkway covers and many other applications requiring strength and transparency.

From transport to installation, a polycarbonate panel will remain durable. Even when exposed to elevated temperatures over a long period of time, polycarbonate will maintain its structural integrity. It won't crack or split when cut or drilled and can be easily fabricated using standard tools. It's ideal for quick, professional installation and works equally well for do-it-yourself building projects. Consider polycarbonate next time you want a strong alternative to traditional glazing.
